What are clouds and why does it rain? What Are Clouds And Why Does It Rain? Almost all the air around us is moist. That means that it contains water in the form of vapour. You can't see it because water vapour is a gas, but it's still water. Water can exist in three states; liquid (water), solid(ice) and gas(water vapour). Obviously, you can see and touch water and ice, but water vapour has no smell, you can't pick it up, and it's invisible. That doesn't mean that you can't feel it though.
